Observations of star formation triggered by H ii regions
Abstract
Observations show that expanding H ii regions may trigger star formation. We discuss several aspects of this type of star formation, and try to estimate its prevalence. We show how LMC H ii regions may help us to understand what we see in our Galaxy.
